TEA ENGLISH BREAKFAST

HISTORY

Chinese people drink tea for health and pleasure for thousands of years. No one knows exactly what attracted them to the shiny, green leaves of camelia sinensis, but a popular myth covers the gap in our knowledge. One day, the emperor Shen Nung was ready to drink boiled water when suddenly air blew and dropped some leaves in the pot from a tree hanging from above. Curious as he was, the Emperor  decided to try this strange-looking mix. He discovered that this beverage was delicious and refreshing. An Indian myth attributes the discovery of tea to Buddhist monk Bodhidharma. She was tired as a seven-year period of insomnia came to an end. In his despair he chewed some leaves from a nearby tree, and immediately he felt renewed. India is now one of the largest tea producers in the world, but there is no historical record of tea consumption in India before the nineteenth century.
